Poor little thing :cry:
Even in that condition a Mk1 Mini is desirable.

A recent programme featured a Mk 1 Cooper S in a very similar state, it sold at auction for £18000.

You don't have to blow anything off a Mini, it falls off first. :lol:

Hi,
Nice little car.
Weren't the original Minis badged as the 'Austin Seven'?
What does the badge on the boot say?
Best wishes,
Mike.

Hmmmm? That car is going to be another 'Trigger's broom'! By the time everything is replaced, there'll probably only be the seat frames that are original.............oh, and the log book of course :D

Once I was offered a 1959 Mini for free which was in a barn and it was rotten I said no and they had it taken away to be crushed.
